Well had a MAXPOWER day :lol: , i didnt like the look of the nasty yellow sidelights on the car so swopped them for some jazzy xenon style LED lights removing the bulbs requires the whole light unit to be removed :doublesho heres the bulb my old bulbs my new LED bulbs So after getting the bug i set about cutting some holes in the roof linning :doublesho this was to fit a set of vanity mirror lights that ford seemed to dislike fitting the the ST's lol in bits :doublesho and nearly done DONE :thumb: i know its probably of no interest

mine is ok, a dent man could get it out for you, a stupid renault mechanic did it to my 182, but i managed to push it out myself -
mine are protected in white grease , are yours not protected ?

i find if you buy them at the right price and buy the right car i dont tend to loose to much, were as a friend bought a new mg z something or other for 14k, and just over a year later sold it for 4.6k, i havnt lost that over my last 6 cars :D
-
personally i just get bored easy, and have done with every car i have owned, so i dont see why the ST will fare any better

cars rarely last over a year in the BLUE household

Leaky screen wash, and new recall?
182_blue replied to Pumaboy2000's topic in MK2 - Ford Focus 2005 > 2011
there is a fault on the pipe that joins the two bottle together, but no fix as yet, you can put some silicone around it and dont fill it up to much -

has anyone been waiting as long as me?

yeh i too know its fords fault at not supplying them, but in a way i cant blame them as they got people wanting to pay full whack for them so why give themaway for 2-3k less, my issue with the brokers is they have not been honest with me and knowing they cant supply within the time frame agreed should offer me a full no quibble refund, for just £500 my particular broker is going to loose itself more business than that from bad feedback from me alone -

182_blue replied to ken's topic in MK2 - Ford Focus 2005 > 2011
adivsed me to send a letter giving them 2 weeks to supply me a car (sent via recorded delivery), mentioning the sales of good act, they havnt so now i have given them 5 days to give me a full refund, we will see what happens then i tried to claim back on my credit card but as its past 3 months i cant :-(, so if they dont pay up after this i will go to small claims court -

mine is buymynewcar , but they sound very alike with there customer service -
this is probably the same fault as mentioned elswhere, if it is then the washer bottle is cut into two, and there is a join beteween them and a pipe, its this pipe that leaks apperently, no known fix yet, but alot of silicon is supposed to fix it
